Did someone take his picture, or was it an unmanned camera?

Ty|||Sigh. For the zillionth time, there was a camera attached to one of the legs of he lunar lander, which Armstrong deployed before he started down the ladder. Later, both Armstrong and Aldrin were on the surface and able to video each other.|||Don't they teach any history in school anymore?





The pictures of Neil as he moved down the lander and stepped on the moon were taken by the remote-control camera that had been secured in a niche in one of the lander's legs and was deployed from inside the capsule then aimed at the ladder.





Apollo 11 had 3 crew members:


- Commander Neil Armstrong and Lunar Module Pilot Buzz Aldrin landed on the moon


- Command Module Pilot Michael Collins remained on the orbiter as it orbited the moon|||You're kidding, right?





The engineers who worked so hard to get Apollo 11 to the Moon were very interested in documenting the operation of their vehicle, in the environment for which it was designed. Naturally, they would provide a camera on the LM to show the hatch and egress ladders being used in their intended environment. The fact that the resulting images would be of an important historical event was not lost on them.





Why do people have such difficulty understanding this?|||That photo was taken by a remote-controlled camera mounted on the outside of the spacecraft.





The other two astronauts on Apollo 11 were Buzz Aldrin and Michael Collins. Only Aldrin and Armstrong actually landed on the Moon; Collins remained in orbit with the command/service module portion of the spacecraft.|||Right, here is a problem to solve. We are landing on the moon. We need to film it. So, we find a position where the camera will take the epic shot. Locate the camera there and we test it. We fit it to the real thing and fly it to the moon and Bingo! All that had to happen was Buzz had to flick a breaker and mission control get the images back from the remote dishes.





It is not so hard and many do the same today on youtube. They use remote camera's with no operator. Indeed many TV studios do the same for late night bulletins and taped and live weather reports. There are many applications for remote camera's.|||"Buzz" Aldrin was on the moon with Armstrong. There was also an automated camera mounted on the lander leg he climbed down on.|||There was a camera attached to the lander.
